Jeremiah 11:17 in Context — Jeremiah 11
15 Que ferait mon bien-aimé dans ma maison? Il s’y commet une foule de crimes. La chair sacrée disparaîtra devant toi. Quand tu fais le mal, c’est alors que tu triomphes!
16 Olivier verdoyant, remarquable par la beauté de son fruit, Tel est le nom que t’avait donné l’Éternel; Au bruit d’un grand fracas, il l’embrase par le feu, Et ses rameaux sont brisés.
17 L’Éternel des armées, qui t’a planté, Appelle sur toi le malheur, A cause de la méchanceté de la maison d’Israël et de la maison de Juda, Qui ont agi pour m’irriter, en offrant de l’encens à Baal.
18 L’Éternel m’en a informé, et je l’ai su; Alors tu m’as fait voir leurs œuvres.
19 J’étais comme un agneau familier qu’on mène à la boucherie, Et j’ignorais les mauvais desseins qu’ils méditaient contre moi: Détruisons l’arbre avec son fruit! Retranchons-le de la terre des vivants, Et qu’on ne se souvienne plus de son nom!
